Our team wins
the "Best Paper" award at SIGIR 2011.
Our project on web-based
detection of cognitive impairment is
now supported by NIH.
I co-chaired WSDM 2012. The proceedings are now available
in DBLP.

I lead the
Emory
Intelligent Information Access Lab (IRLab). We work on information
retrieval and text and data mining, developing techniques
for mining online user behavior and
interactions in web
search and online
social networks, large-scale content analysis and information extraction, and
on applications of these techniques to medical informatics.
I
am
also
affiliated
with
the
Emory Data
Management
Group, The
Emory Center for Comprehensive Informatics, the Linguistics Program, and the Georgia Institute of
Technology Web Science Initiative.
